How Sweet It Is

How sweet it is Please Take 5 minutes of your time to read my poem This sweet adventure actually won't take that long Step inside my imagination Mr.Good Bar gave us a 100 Grand 50 thousand for you and 50 thousand for me Lets go spend this cash with obligation We can go anywhere on this planet or travel back in time to buy a Whatchamacallit But here in present time I've invested in a corner market Selling warm Boston Baked Beans, homemade Hot Tamales and fresh Swedish Fish The community is burning a hole in their pocket I'm buying an expensive fur coat Then a catwalk down 5th Avenue And act like life isn't a Rocky Road You know what forget the money I'd rather float in the Galaxy and watch a Starburst in Zero gravity Sponsor: Carol Connell Contest name: How sweet it is Date: October 4, 2018

This was so much fun to read, a sweet little poetic story. I think you did a fantastic job with the candy names required for the contest. This should do well.
